Alicia’s Story:
Alicia has a PhD in psychology, the mom of four (including a squishy little boy who just so happens to have autism), as well as a writer. These are her thoughts on dignity and what it means to her and her family.

Jamir’s Story:
This video was made for Extend-A-Family Waterloo Region (EAFWR)'s new community movement called "I Choose Dignity". We want our community to take more responsibility for including people with disabilities by recognizing equality and dignity of each person's presence.
